Description

This 175.5615 ha (approx.) Bainham farm offers far more than meets the eye, with remarkable diversity, genuine production, and a long history of land use that makes it one of Golden Bay's most interesting rural holdings, combined with the rare and unique opportunity to connect this block to up to 6 other blocks creating a huge scale high quality farming unit - links to other available land holding below.

Currently operated as a successful sheep and beef unit run in conjunction with two other adjoining holdings, the property runs a highly productive operation with strong performance figures that speak for themselves. Prior to this, the farm was a fully functioning dairy operation highlighting the productivity and potential for the land, and the original dairy shed structure remains intact. In an earlier chapter, it even formed part of an expansive Landcorp block, and evidence of old gold workings can still be found scattered across the property-an intriguing nod to the area's heritage.

The land offers a mix of fertile, improved pasture, areas of native bush, pockets of manuka, and attractive river boundaries, giving the next owner a wide array of future land-use options, including apiculture, eco-based ventures, tourism, or continued livestock farming. Our vendors have invested significantly in clearing and developing large areas, transforming scrub into productive pasture-yet there remains genuine scope for further development and added value.

A sunny and tidy three-bedroom cottage sits privately with views out toward Kahurangi National Park. Extensive farm shedding supports the operation, including a two-stand shearing shed with covered yards, the decommissioned dairy shed, and other useful infrastructure-all contributing to a very workable and productive farming package.

The location is a major highlight. Just down the road lies the village of Collingwood, offering rural schooling, a supermarket, cafés, and access to some of Golden Bay's most iconic beaches. Even closer to home are the Heaphy Track, Kahurangi National Park, the Aorere Goldfields-and right on the property itself is a private track leading to the idyllic Salisbury Creek Falls and swimming hole. With work, recreation and wilderness all at your doorstep, this truly is the perfect blend of productivity and lifestyle.

A rare Golden Bay offering with scale, history, diversity, and room to grow-this Bainham farm delivers a unique work-life balance in one remarkable package
